I had such a great experience at this salon! Amy did an incredible job with my haircut. She was super nice, patient, and really listened to what I wanted. She helped guide me toward the right style and was so supportive the whole time, which made me feel comfortable and confident. It's rare to find someone who is both skilled and genuinely kind, but Amy really is. I left feeling great about my hair and the experience overall. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending her to others! read more

Britany is the best! She always cuts my wife's hair perfectly and I'm doing this because I'm one "beauty" review away from recognition and idk why but the yelp badges make me feel cool- BUT I'd do it anyways because she's amazing read more

This review is for their online website. I ordered a hair oil on there and received the first email stating my order has been received Almost two weeks go by and no email or shipment. I contacted the salon and Jeff was the only helpful person and tried to get a hold of the online sales representative. The online sales representative said oh yeah I saw her order but we don't have it. So he thought it's okay we don't have it we can keep her money. He told Jeff he would contact me and refund me he did not do either so I have to dispute the charge on my own credit card. Very shady online business! Do not buy from their online website read more

Connor did a fantastic job with my hair. I am so glad that I took a chance with someone new. If you are looking for a new stylist that takes his time and listens to what you have to say look no further. Give Connor a chance you won't be disappointed. read more

Visiting this salon was a big mistake. Hello! I feel I should warn you about Connor Moore. I was lured in by his photos. I left the appointment wondering if I just paid him $1,500 to practice on my hair. The whole experience was unprofessional. 1. It took him nearly seven hours (and several more in two "fix it" appointments) to do what it takes other stylists 2.5 to 3 hours to do. 2. He didn't know how order enough extension hair. See photo. At the end of my appointment, I had to pay for more than he quoted me and come back for another appointment to add the rest. 3. The extensions started coming loose the next day. He tried to fix it. Then they came loose almost immediately again. He tried to fix it. Then again. You can see the sloppy work he did in the photo. 4. He left ugly strings in my hair. See photo. I asked him to cut them. He told me he couldn't because the whole weft would fall out. He tried telling me they blended perfectly! Later, at the hairstylist I went to to fix his mistakes, she cut them immediately. 5. Even though I'd asked him never to let assistants do his work (I'd had a bad experience before), he let two students color roots onto my extensions. Not only did he not respect my request, they colored many shades too dark, ruining my brand new, expensive extensions. 6. He tried twice to match my natural hair to my extensions as promised, but with no success. He finally did it on the third try, but when I got home, I noticed my hair was terribly damaged and fried. See photo. 7. The extension length of the shorter one is strange and noticeable. 8. I got an irritated bald spot. My new hairstylist told me he put too much weight on my fine hair in the corner. She fixed it to a hybrid method and it's much better. I paid Connor $1,500. After trying to let him fix things and him being unable to, I had to pay hundreds on top of that to a new hairstylist to fix his mistakes. The most disappointing part of the whole experience with Connor was how he handled my deserved refund request. I have never asked for a refund for a hair treatment in my life. When I wrote to Connor asking for one, he castigated me and then dismissed me. He said it was my fault. I've had extensions for years and know how to take care of them. This has never happened. And how can the frying my hair, having girls color my hair, not ordering enough hair, taking over double the time it takes other stylists, etc., be my fault? He wouldn't respond to that. The pictures speak for his work. I also wrote to Diane and Jeff, owners of Salon Platinum. I know they try to push off bad reviews and ask people to delete them and write them on the hairstylists' pages only, but as hairstylists are contractors hired by them, they have an accountability level. Connor represents their salon. If they care about their salon name and reputation, they need to know what's going on in their salon and do what they can to rectify any bad service. They should be more concerned with who they hire and the satisfaction of their clientele if they wish for their salon to have a good reputation. I wrote to them in the hopes they would, as players with a stake in this, guide Connor to make the right decision and offer a refund for services not rendered to salon standard, but they have not responded, so I must write here. I wish the experience didn't come to this, but I feel the need to give others a heads up. I hope this helps! read more

Been coming to Jeff at Salon Platinum for years. Not only is he an amazing stylist/colorist, the salon is open, airy, SUPER CLEAN!! I feel completely safe coming to this salon after lockdown. All of the protocols are in place and still have a relaxing salon experience. read more

I absolutely love Luis! He's very obliging and master Colorist and as compassionate to all of his clients cutting edge styles as well as consideration for the client. The salon itself has a friendly atmosphere and a camaraderie amongst the hairdressers! Highly recommended read more

I've been to Salon Platinum off and on before. All 3 hairstylists that I've been going to throughout the last 15 years have all worked at this salon at one time or another. That just goes to show how great they are in hiring the best hair stylists! I am very particular with my hair and all 3 hair stylists know exactly what I want and what I need. Alexis Hernandez is the recent addition to their team. I've followed her to several locations and her most recent location is here. She is outstanding and it's no wonder that she's at the #1 salon in OC! The salon itself is easy to access in Aliso Viejo and it's always stylish, clean and warm. Parking is easy. It doesn't get much better than this! read more

I cannot even begin to talk about the amazing experience I had at this salon and with Cristina Hilliard as my stylist! I noticed that there was a negative review regarding her services on here and I just couldn't believe it. It's ironic that the person posting did not include a picture of the supposed "botched" job, so I was more than happy to post my before and after pictures as proof of her amazing work! First, I'll review the salon. It is a huge open space with many stations, everything is so clean, and all the stylists I was able to speak with were so nice and welcoming. The bathrooms were clean, and I absolutely loved the glitter floors! Cristina offered me water, tea, or coffee while I waited for my hair to color which is always a nice gesture. Now on to Cristina. Not only is she gorgeous and sweet, she is amazing at cutting hair! I have curly hair, so I am VERY picky about who I go to and who cuts it. I cannot tell you the amount of times my hair has been cut too short because people simply don't understand how to cut curly hair. She gave me a quick consultation where we were able to talk about what I want from my hair and what is actually possible. We found a middle ground, and covered up my grey, then added a red tint during the washing process to achieve the look I wanted. She took the time to explain everything to me in detail so I knew exactly what she was doing and what the plan was. This honestly was the best hair cutting experience I've ever had and I could not believe how straight she was able to get my hair. Please, do yourself a favor and make an appointment with Cristina Hilliard. View my pictures, since they honestly speak for themselves, and pay no attention to the previously posted negative comment! Thank you so much Cristina for the amazing, cut, color, and style! read more

I called at 6 pm (hoping someone would take last minute) and Luis answered and said he could get me in at 7:45. He asked me what I wanted and I showed him my inspiration photos. He gave a few suggestions on the length, texture and the collie I'm trying to grow out, plus and helped blend my bangs into my hair!! (I cut them on my own back in nov ) He did such a great cut and I will be going back! Ask for Luis! read more

Love my hair cut and color! Thank you Connor Moore for taking your time on doing the cut and color.

*****5 STARS is not enough!! This is a 10 STAR salon filled with 10 STAR people!!! I have been wanting to leave a review for a while but haven't had the time. First off i got my hair cut at the Aveda salon and this lady completely gave me a lopsided mess. I am active duty and work very late hours. I got out of work at 7 pm and started calling around no one would get me in until I came across this salon. I walked in at 8 pm and asked if they could squeeze me in. I wasn't pushed away, rather welcomed with open arms!! My stylist name is Brittney and she is phenomenal!! Personality, knowledge of various types of hair, products and a stylist expert! She is the COMPLETE package!!! I was traumatized from my recent aveda experience and with each snip of her scissors she cut that out of my mind. She took her time and worked a miracle on my hair. As a woman there is no better feeling then feeling beautiful and confident !! She did that for me, and restored my feeling of beauty. I love her mad skills! Before I forget to mention I have been going back to her for about a year and each time I'm more and more impressed . Each co worker is amazing and treats me and my 6year old son like we are family. Not to mention the owner is amazing , full of great energy and pretty nice to look at :) . If you choose to go the this Salon you won't b disappointed ! read more

Jeff Wacker is the most professional, hip, fun, and knowledgable artist of hair I've ever worked with. Very few stylists understand my hair. It's thick, unruly, cowlicks all over the place and notoriously difficult to cut, let alone style. In the past, my only option was a military high & tight... pretty boring. Jeff took my hair by the roots and showed it who was in control. The end result was a complete redefining of what my hair can do and how I can do it (an education bestowed on me by the Wacker free of charge). Every chance I get, I tell people to check out Salon Platinum! read more

After bouncing around between a few hair dressers I found Jessi Guenther, who was a referral from my best friend. Like most girls, I had my hair ombre for over five years. For the last two years, Jessi had been maintaining the style and a basic cut (my hair was very long so all I ever really needed was a trim). This last summer, Jessi really showcased her talent on my locks. We cut 10" off. It was a bold move and I honestly can't believe I'm not missing my long hair AT ALL. The style she gave me fits my look and personality so well. After a few visits of maintaining the shorter 'do, she became vocal and voiced her opinion that I should lighten my dark brown hair. I was so excited that she was taking initiative rather than just tending to my hair as instructed. I don't feel that many naturally brunette girls can pull off blonde hair but Jessi has worked her magic! I am so happy with the way my color and cut look. I can't imagine trusting anyone else to touch my hair; with that said, I highly recommend the salon and of course Jessi! I adore her! read more

I mention this only bc I hv been to salons where you feel the negative vibes and the staff is talking crap on each other! read more

I had the best experience here. My friend recommended Salvador Santana and I must do the same! I cannot say how wonderful he treated me. I told him I wanted to go darker, but I didn't want to be boring. He worked some kind of magic because my hair looked so polished and glamorous. He also made me feel really important and not just a customer. He took such good care of my hair. SO much dimension. I recommend him over and over and have sent a couple of my friends to see him too! You'll love him. PS: He has nice hands if your scalp needs a little massage. ;-) Tip generously! He does blondes too! Salvador (760) 920-3095 read more

Love when I pay a hundred dollars for my hair color to completely fade away after 3 washes... not the first time this has happened. It always looks great at first, but doesn't last more than a week. Waste of a lot of money. read more

I saw the reviews on Yelp and decided to give this place a call. I was referred to Jenn and given her number. I told her about my hair and she asked for pictures of my current hair and pictures of my goals. I knew that they might not be realistic, but I told her I was flexible and open to suggestions on tones and levels. She immediately stopped texting me back. That is such a horrible feeling. If you don't have the skill set to achieve something you should at the very least refer out to someone who does. If you do have the skill set, but do not think it is achievable, you should offer other suggestions on something that is more realistic. The job of a hairstylist is to literally communicate with the client and come up with a plan that both of you agree on. read more

I work in Aliso Viejo but live about an hour away so the only time I could come in was after work around 6:00PM on a Wednesday. Alexis was kind enough to accommodate me and was fantastic throughout the session. Her family's had the business for over 20 years so she really knows what she's talking about. First thing she'll ask is if you've colored your hair before, because it affects the strength of bleach she uses and she wants to make sure she keeps the integrity of your hair intact and avoid causing any damage to it. This was the first time I colored my hair purple so I asked her a ton of questions about color maintenance and hair care. She was friendly in answering everything and even gave me a mini science breakdown of the different dyes and what peroxide actually does to hair. My inner science nerd was totally geeking out over that. Overall Alexis was attentive, thorough, pleasant to talk to and she truly cares about the quality of her work. Coloring my hair took 3.5 hours to do so be prepared to shell out a few hundos but for the time and care Alexis puts in it's well worth the $$. She did a great job I love how my hair turned out. Highly recommend! read more

DONT COME HERE!!! My original review for this business was a 5 star post, sadly I had to change it to a 1 star. I wish they had a 0 star because truly the people here only care about themselves and not the customers. I've been to this salon about 5 times for an ombre and cut, however this last experience left me stunned. I came in for an ombre and a haircut with Taylor and spent 4 hours in the chair. By the time I was done it was 9 pm and I rushed to get home because I had a party the next day. I looked at my hair in the salon and it seemed very blonde. I assumed it was perhaps the lighting because Taylor has done my ombre before and he knows that I HATE having blonde in my hair. I come home and take a closer look at my hair and was shocked to see that my whole head was full of blonde streaks!!! Highlights everywhere! No ombre in sight. I was horrified and quickly texted Taylor, his response sadly was that it was my fault because during the consultation there was a miscommunication. I asked if he would be able to fix it for me the next morning because I have a party to go to and he says he can't because he's working at another salon. He said he'll get back to me in the morning about another stylist who could possibly be able to fix it. He texts me at 1pm the next day and by that time, I already went to another salon to get my hair back to its original color (just in time for my party). I texted Taylor again a week later asking if he would be able to fix my hair and set up an appointment and his words verbatim were "Sorry, I don't think I'm the right stylist for you." I WAS SHOCKED! After spending close to $200 repairing work that he charged me $200 for!!! I spent $400 to go back to square one. DONT COME HERE!!! Check the pictures for proof! read more
